LUNGBURNER has released their new single "Apostasy," the second track from their forthcoming third full-length album Dogma, due out April 17 - pre-orders are available HERE. A song that has already become a staple in the band’s live sets throughout 2025, "Apostasy" captures a balance of controlled intensity and raw emotion. The track begins with a sample of philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti challenging the role of religion in shaping false realities and imposed truths. From there, "Apostasy" builds into a focused and aggressive composition that reflects the tension involved in breaking away from deeply rooted cultural and ideological systems. It presents both confrontation and release, centered on rejecting expectation and inherited belief.

While the title references the act of leaving one’s birth religion, often at significant personal risk, "Apostasy" extends beyond that idea. The song stands as a statement of individual direction and the pursuit of truth and peace, even when it comes at the cost of social acceptance. It reflects a willingness to move forward without guarantees.

The song was the second written for Dogma and developed from an earlier piece by Joshua. Its early creation helped shape the direction of the album, both thematically and sonically. Its reception in live settings has reinforced its place as a defining track in this cycle.

With Dogma, LUNGBURNER continues to explore themes of identity, belief, and autonomy through a direct and uncompromising sound. "Apostasy" offers a clear introduction to the record’s core ideas.Dogma arriving in full on April 17.
